LOL, Roger ain't gonna be happy that some smoke shop worker busted open the box early and stole his thunder.

The mouthpiece is an interesting solution for needing to use wax pens vertically:

Can't tell what the hell's going on in the atomizer. Looks like a small 3D atty, but is there glass in it :hmm:. I'm hoping it's for an all glass vapor path 🤞

Has my interest for sure. The proxy has filled my needs while the pro collects dust. Loved my Cricket experience and this seems like the same air path distance. Don’t see myself adding a $60 WPA, but I guess that does include both 14/10 and a 3D chamber.

Why does the air path look like all silicon from the atty picture above?

Is the cap all silicon?

If it is, that is a deal breaker for me.

Got one pre-ordered, this form factor is of a lot of interest to me now that I'm working a hybrid job instead of remote. Curious how this is going to stack up against the competition - DT is going to be more cost effective, I believe, as well as rebuildable. The Aeris, for $70 more, gives you completely configurable temps/lighting through the app, swappable batteries with wireless charging, and it works with the regular full intellicore and intellicore max atomizers.

Anything worth doing, is worth overdoing.
I didn't have the patience to listen to the arrogance in the puffco keynote stream.
Do we know, can it be run in on-demand mode or is it only constant heating session mode like the Proxy?

4 preset temps, but what are they??? Please go lower than 450, especially with this level of distance from the mouthpiece...

Blue- 500
green- 520
red- 540
white -585

also the easter egg on white (600+) and a NEW easter egg on blue - GRANNY MODE lol. So yeah, maybe not 450, but something that likely will keep the low temp terp chaser smiling.

Looks like it is going to be a nice product. Is this intended exclusively with Concentrates?

I'm not all that familiar with Puffco aren't most of their products primarily for Concentrates. I guess there are some things like Cupsy that is for smoking.

As I expected they tried to compare it to disposable cartridges, but despite the similar form factor IMO it’s much more of a Proxy competitor than a cart replacement.

It doesn’t really have any of the benefits of a cartridge platform - otherworldly battery life, no loading, no swabbing hits, and no toting around loose hash. I’m having some R/Waxpen flashbacks lol, waddup @florduh

By the time you bring this, your hot knife, some rosin, and cotton swabs it seems easier to just grab the Proxy that already holds all of this stuff in its discrete carrying case. Realistically a vape that needs a to-go-pac isn’t really a cart replacement, IMHO.

That said it looks like a cool refresh, I’d honestly be tempted to grab one for my backpack beach kit cause I gave my Proxy to my mom.

With a USB power bank I could rock it like my old C-Nail (CCELL Enail) waddup homie @biohacker

Completely agree @invertedisdead !

Personally for me this is going to shine with extra pre-filled chambers on the fly! (quit carts a while ago)

I'm also curious on what's leftover after the dab with a cap like that.

And programmed temps seem a tad excessive for rosin anyways (rarely go over 500 on my peak 3dxl) but that's likely just to do with airflow.

So many new toys, and I thought my VAS was cured a year ago silly me lol.

I literally thought the same thing, lol. Puffco marketing has been shitting on carts and pods for a while now. I think they know it's a bad comparison, but believe if they can peel off half a percent from that market, maybe Roger can buy a yacht :shrug:

The better use case is, if I'm in a situation where I'm carrying a man purse, I'd much rather whip out something like the Pivot than a future crack pipe or a toilet-bong. Even in Cali, I feel uncomfortable using the Proxy in public. No glass to break either.

Roger even got into that market, lol.

I saw they're selling those. I dunno... and maybe I'm wrong, but if that case is bouncing around in my man-purse, I feel like the sauce will eventually gunk up the mouthpiece?

But those chambers are relatively cheap. Don't know if I'd pre-load. But here's a good use case for me: not needing to q-tip in public if I want a fresh hit, lol. This is who I feel like q-tipping my Proxy in public:

I agree that it doesnt really fit the cart use case, in my mind its actually much more like the cricket or the aeris, a small portable that allows you to dab anywhere (granted you have a small bag or fanny pack or something to keep your qtips in). I just cant see a reason to get this if you have one of the those 2 already, as they are both better in a lot of ways (albeit more expensive).
